This game is a really uniqe concept and a well excuted one at that but the game is quite buggy. Now Disclousre i have not beaten this game because i mistyped and i have to restart the game (although that is my mistake and i will not deduct points for that). The game has a very basic gameplay loop. Crack the secruity (such as proxy's and firewalls) sometimes you need to worry about a timer and then do what you need to with the file in the said computer or scan for another one. Now i have already encountered one bug that made me restart my save which was luckily near the start of the game where i when i scanned and found another computer and then i couldn't finish the mission. There is alot of uniqe missons i won't spoil them but lets just say you ever played a game with dosbox you'll right at home. I give it a 4/5 a very good game with some game breaking bugs and human error on my part.
Supergiant have made their name from making wonderful stories and this is no exception. The gameplay itself is a basic concept, imagine something like nba jam but with fantasy charecters. The gameplay loop can be quite tedious near the start with ten minutes of talking and 5 minutes of actual gamplay which is the aforementioned Nba jame vire fanasy. But the gameplay is not what kept me going it was the wonderful narrative and THAT MUSIC is wonderful. The writing is top notch and made me feel invested in charecters and the world they're in. Another plus is the story is alot more upfront compared to supergiant's previous work Transistor which had a lot more subtle story telling which is fine for something like transistor but this game would suffer from that form of story telling. Guess i better wrap this up, Pyre is a wonderful game with an awsome Story and just as great soundtrack. It gets a 4/5 stars from me, because it does have some pacing and gameplay loop flaws near the start but are very much ironed out near the end but never really go away but the story was so good i wanted to keep playing.
